I ruled out allergy to meds & supplements by stopping each one at a time. So now wondering if symptom of Bartonella. Each night begins with extreme itching then get raised lines criss crossing each other and extremely itchy. Shows up on different parts of body each time, but most often somewhere on back. The only way to stop it is with (3) benidryls. The rash is huge and really shocks people who have seen it. Still do not have an LLMD so am just wondering if anyone out there have had this.
Thanks, (again)

If I knew how to post a picture I would show you what I had a few months back. Sounds similar.

Sounds like Scabies Beagle..Any parasite is a lot more common in Lyme patients. We are chemo attractive to them.
I would call my doc and ask them what to do. You may be able to fax them a pic...

Pinelady....I don't think it's Scabies. The rash is like severe hives only instead of circular the are mostly straight lines, but behave like really bad hives. I am going to a Neurologist tomorrow and will ask her about it, but not hopeful (3rd specialist so far) But will see an LLNP next month, finally!
thks,

Do you have any Dogs, cats etc? have you changed any products lately?
Posted by Beagle (Member # 29698) on :
Steve, no. Only thing I changed is not having dogs! I have a dog care business + my own dogs for the last 21 years. But since becoming debilitated last October, too sick to continue business or even care for my own dogs. Should be from an allergy,right? but nothing is different except that my muscles and neuro symptoms have been gradually progressing. wondered if the rash could be any clue to diagnoses/treatment. Gotta wait til next month for my long awaited appointment with a LLNP. As you can see from all the questions I keep posting, I'm not as patient as I could be waiting for this appointment! :/
